It seems we went for similar themes, but quite different mechanics. I really like the simplicity of yours. Well done.

I liked idea. good job

Very good game! I didn't have a second player so I just played around with it but I think it would be fun with 2! I love the ice blocks that make you really think about how to position the die before going to a cannon!

One piece of feedback: when you are next to a cannon, you don't roll on top of it, but you slide into it, which conflict with the movement in all other places. It took some time to get used to it.

Admittedly, it's a little hard to get a feel for the game without a second player. And it's kind of impractical to find someone to play with when you have all these other jam entries you want to try.

That being said, I really liked what I saw, and this gets full marks for creativity. Everything here is solid, and I'd be interested in playing it properly if I ever get the chance.

Very nice, though a bit of a shame I don't have anyone to play with;)

A fun mad scramble versus friends. Reminds me of the golden age of Xbox Live Arcade games. The elemental effects you can deal add so much as a well placed one can turn the tide of a round. If you could somehow implement up to 4 players I could see this doing really really well as a party game. Great work.

Aye, I appreciate a fun two player game. Props for making your 3d dice roll in this 2d game, but i think you should put some sort of guide or hint on what face would appear in the 4 directions. Would really help a lot. But amazing game! And a singleplayer would be so fun. Good job!

Submitted

Nice idea! I really love the theme and art work you create!

Submitted

Really fun game to play :o

i just wish there is a single player mode :3

well made !

Submitted

Amazing idea!!! It's so nice to see a pvp game!

Awesome alone, better with friends! Great gameplay mechanic with the dice, interesting power-ups too. Overall a great game ☺

Developer

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it ^^

This was awesome, played this with my little brother. I won every game because he is only 2 years old and doesn't understand dice. It felt very fun planning ways to defeat him faster every time. Feel like I learned a lot about dice today.

This sounds like a villain origin story. Glad we could play a part in the downfall of society!

Submitted

Full disclosure I played this by myself. That being said it was still a pretty compelling little puzzle game of trying to figure out how to get the best cannon shot off with every die. Clearly tons of potential for fun with friends. Really enjoyed the presentation and game play, awesome work!

Developer

Thanks for playing! We love playing it alone too haha. We plan to keep working on this to make it more fun and for more friends.

always loved pixel games, nice 👌

I like the theme and all the art looks great. I tried to put the die-rolling Bloxorz-like controls in my 2D game but I honestly couldn't figure it out and cut it, so it's cool to see someone else implement that idea really well!

Developer

Yeah we had quite a challenge with the dice too. We ended up using a state machine to make the dice Bloxorz-like. Thanks for trying our game!

Very nice game, enjoyed it a lot, nicely done!

Intuitive and engaging gameplay! Awesome art!

This is a very clever idea. I didn't realize it was two players until a few shots in. It would be great with a second person and challenging as well. 

Developer

Thanks for playing! It took us a day before we realized it should be a 2-player game as well LOL
